Yes folks, i did it again....today i filled out the necessary paperwork to volunteer for another deployment to Iraq...I volunteered to go with the 30th HBCT ( Heavy Brigade Combat Team)...for all those who haven't read this in a newspaper or seen it on T.V....the Army has switched to Brigade size combat teams...instead of mobalizing Divisions or parts of Divisions to fill the various needs of a deployment (infantry, tankers, gasoline specialists, MP's, medics, etc) the Army has switched to Brigade Combat Teams which have everything they need organic to them for a deployment...so the 30th HBCT has all the Infantry, Tanks, Cav-Scouts, Medics, Supply Guys, etc it needs for the deployment alrady assigned to it....that way the army doesn't have to activate small units from various Divisions and bases across the nation anymore...oh...when i say "Heavy" BCT i mean it has TONS of armor...it has Tanks and Bradleys...anyways...just wanted to let everyone know....there will be def. more to write about this desicion as it starts to sink in...love you all...HASTA
